Skylark Diner and Lounge in Edison, New Jersey.
This restaurant was recommended by a loyal Ceo Blog Reader. The food was phenomenal, small in portions and just enough; but not worth the hour-long drive in Friday night traffic.
Equipped with a full bar and bakery on site, the food was good, the service was impeccable and the decor retro sixtyish.
There was four of us., I had the grilled salmon, whipped mashed potatoes and sautéed spinach, my friend had the shrimp, scallop and sausage fettucine, while the other couple chowed down on a chicken wrap with french fries and chicken parmesan with pasta.
Our appetizers were fried calamari and lobster bisque soup.
Thank you for your restaurant recommendations (keep them coming) however, anything further than 45 minutes away from the (NY-NJ) tri-state area, I will only dine at these eateries if ever in that particular area.


Can we please get a picture of you and your boyfriend at these places? please!!! I can see others not wanting to be pictured but please show us your man Tracy. Thank U. 🙂

I’m honest when i dine out., esp. if my readers are going to frequent these places as well. The food was great but it wasn’t worth it for someone like me.

Hello All:
I mean everybody, my ceo ladies and my gentlemen..
While I recieve hundreds of emails from my readers daily., giving me all kinds of story suggestions, and leads I do-not follow up and/or write about them all.
When this is the case, it is simply because the story does NOT interest me. So please don’t take offense to this. I have to be passionate about what I write in order to maintain this blog.
I thank you in advance for understanding.
